I rode the motorcycle in again this morning;\u00a0 Brrrr.\u00a0 I think the riding season has about come to an end.\u00a0 Of course, I’ve been saying that for several weeks now so who knows how long I will stretch it out.\u00a0 I’m definitely switching back to the scooter if nothing else, I know that much.\u00a0 While the motorcycle might have a few style points, the scooter is infinitely more practical for the morning commute.\u00a0 Matter of fact, I rode it the vast majority of the time this year.\u00a0 For one thing, the windshield makes it much more comfortable in the chilly weather.\u00a0 I didn’t think it would make a huge difference, but over the last two mornings I found out it most certainly does.\u00a0 You can carry a lot more stuff on the scooter too.\u00a0 It has tons of storage space;\u00a0 The motorcycle is limited to whatever fits in my backpack.\u00a0 And then there is the drive itself.\u00a0 The scooter is exempt from all those pesky driving rules and regulations, which comes in handy, especially with the dozens of brutally un-synchronized stoplights I have along my route.\u00a0 Bus lanes are fair game for scooters too, as well as a few other unmentionable maneuvers that might be considered gross violations of the law for any other vehicle.\u00a0 Mind you, all these exemptions are purely in my mind, hopefully karma doesn’t catch up with me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
